Keyhole - dry suit? wet suit?
I did keyhole back in august without a wetsuit, and was cold but fine. That was when it was ~100F out. I'm thinking about taking friends through it this weekend. Forecast is for mid 70s. Think wet suits would cut it? dry suits needed? Thanks for any input!

"Wetsuit" means different things to different people. A 2mm shortee Lake Powell water-skiing suit? nope, not good enough for what we got going now. Generally, full leg, full arm wetsuits are way warmer than shortee wetsuits, for only a small cost in money and weight. Then the question is how thick. Thickness is not absolute, however. How well the suit fits and how tight it is (how little water it lets circulate) make a big difference too. Sooooooooo
right now, minimum reasonable wetsuit would be a tight 4/3 mm suit. More would be nice.

I don't think I have ever done Keyhole with a wetsuit. But then again, I have only done it in June. This time of year I would wear a full length 5/3 to be comfortable. It is short but VERY cold in that last swimming section.
